Non-Joe collections
From other comments & pics it's easy to see that many of us collect more than GI Joes -- I thought I'd start a thread especially for showcasing pictures from our other favourite toy lines! If I got the HTML right, I should be starting it off here:
This is all the Marvel Legends I have who've been Avengers, less my Black Widow, War Machine and Sandman who're at a friend's place (along with my Modern Iron Man and green 1st Appearance Hulk who I'd have preferred using). But I have no idea when I'm likely to get those figures back and I wasn't going to wait!
Not exactly a diorama, although I'll probably try some outside when it stops raining here (next month at this rate).

I'm not even a Joe collector anymore. I buy what I think I need for a dio. And in a way, almost everything that is my 3.75" collection, I'm willing to sell for the right price. Just ask Lord Raven!!! Now, I do dabble in other toys; Microman, Alien Racers, Spiderman toys, and now, CyberUnits. 1 thing I am NOT into is TF. I just can't get back into them. I guess I like my robots looking like anime, not robots. lol.

GI joe is the main thing of course, but then there's Nascar diecast (1,000+), and trading cards, mostly Marvel, some DC, Image, sport, etc (almost 20,000 cards all up), plus civil war relics and photographs. Then there's the wife's Beanie Babies (too many to count). No wonder we have no storage space left!

I collect a lot of star wars. I think I am addicted. A V-wing is coming out this year.
About robots -- Sonn, do you like robotech? I think I recall you saying you weren't into gundam?
MS-18E Kampfer is my favourite, The MSZ-006A1/C1 Zeta Plus rules, Gundam sentinel are all great designs,I love all the mechs from chars counter attack sazabi, nu gundam etc. And the gerbera tetra from ?, --ok, enough gundam.
Outrider, in the end those beanie babies are going to have to fight it out with your joes for possession of the house.

As you already know, I collect some Transformers-- Mostly just Masterpiece and Alternators/Binaltech (and now Classics!). I also have a ton of Marvel Legends, Spider-Man Classics, etc. Otherwise, I just pick up what jumps out at me here and there, like the occasional DC Direct figure.
Things I used to collect include the now-cancelled Masters of the Universe revival, Sota's Street Fighter line (yeah, technically it's still going, but when you haven't produced anything in a year, I put you in the "used to" category till I see something new), some Dragonball Z figures. I'm sure there's more that I can't think of right now.
Silencer-- I have a few Gundam models from a few years ago. I love all the Zeon suits. I have a Gouf, a Zaku I, and a Zaku II. Plus some of the little Gundam action figures they made when the shows were on Cartoon Network. Too bad you can't wander into Toys R Us and find Gundam stuff there anymore.

ok my turn.....
I have collected action man for awhile now, mostly the comics but I do have a number of the figures and sets. I also collect different types of bigfoot,yeti, and anything in a reference to that, like the figures from marvel legends, alpha flight, and a few other figure lines that have bigfoot figures. I did collect the galidor lego line when it was out, but I was never able to get all of them, I'm missing about tow of the american release sets and the two australian exclusives, oh and I'm aslo missing the comics that came out with the line aslwell. thats about it for me.

In an unprecedented move, Hawk, Cobra Commander and Destro have formed an uneasy alliance to eliminate the common enemy of the dreaded storage space devouring Beanies. Maybe I could turn it into a dio story...

My main collection is G.I. Joe. I buy other lines like SW, Marvel, when I think the figs look cool. But, my coin is specifically going towards Joes these days, that is untill the day they come out with BSG figs...
